New Release (1.0.2.1)
In the latest release of the TV and Movie Theme Video/Song Plugins, a new filter has been added to prevent the download of a theme if its not wanted it in your collection.
When the plugin downloads a theme in the future, a new filter item will automatically be added to the plugins configuration page. If that theme is then deleted from your collection, the theme will never be downloaded again.
If you change your mind, simply enter the plugins configuration pa
We decided it was time to update the face we present to the world, so we've spruced up our website a bit.
We needed to do more to show off what we can do with this incredible set of applications, and let people know what a fantastic community of users and developers we have here. Hey if you've got it, you might as well flaunt it, right?
It is a work in progress with improvements and additions still to come, so stay tuned!
So, without further ado...

Background
Plugins, extensions and integrations make an important part of the Emby ecosystem. Plugin development is open to everybody and many great plugins have been created by Emby community members. To show our appreciation for the great work and achievements of community developers, we took steps in order to improve in an area where we haven't done that well in the recent past: Developer Support.
When talking about support, there are several different facets to evaluate and consider.
One year ago, I sent Luke a PM asking him to look into a Media Browser add-on for Xbmc.
I really didn't know Luke at the time - otherwise I would have known that he would push me to do it myself. Luke is good at that!
At the time:
I didn't know Python
I didn't know anything about working with web APIs, XBMC API or MB3 API
I didn't know how to use GitHub
I made a little progress - got lists to display and files to play. I thought I was about done...
And then users and other d

Hi All,
We are making progress towards a 0.8.0 release of XBMB3C.
Added a new developer - im85288 who has been helping a lot with skin intergration.
Check out our progress:
Did you hear of XBMB3C ?
It's a fantastic add-on for XBMC to connect to your Media Browser server and browse your libraries. That way you can take advantage of the great things XBMC has to offer like PVR-support, large amount of plugins and a large support of devices/platforms without giving up the fantastic features of Media Browser.
If you just install the XBMB3C add-on, you have to open up the add-on to browse your Media Browser libraries. Not that user friendly as you might want to just

The Emby team hopes you and yours are enjoying a Happy Holiday Season. We would like to announce a couple of changes that will hopefully increase the value of Emby in all of your households.
First, to aid in the transition from our old TV-only Android TV app to the new Standard Android app on that platform, we will be eliminating the need for the app unlock by allowing free playback for up to five TV devices per Emby Server. Devices beyond that limit will require Emby Premiere. Previousl
